sailors in egfejtulciumteie, relate* to their taking the oath, and receiving it from the Portuguese aubjects in the countries where they reside. Jeur 29 —The Colonels of some other regiments address the Infanta, protesting their attachnient to the Constitution, and their loyalty to the Queen, Her Royal Highness, in her answer, sap, that she will readily sacrifice her repose, her health, and, if necessary, her life, to maintain the peace, tranquillity, and prosperity of the kingdom ; and she promises to acquaint the King, her brother, with their honourable sentiments. In another trial of our Pay e r w ill b e f oun d the re- , port o f a il iVlaidstone, on an action brought by a poor labouring man against several gentlemen of the county of Kent, ior an assault of a very outrageous character. The plaintiff and some other persons, were, with the consent of the steWard of the gentleman on whose grounds it happened, digging out their dogs from the earth of a fox, which they had endeavoured to take, for the purpoie of sale, 'when a party of gentle men, fox-hunting, came to the spot, and finding them engaged in this unrighteous work, attempted first to klll the dogs, which they bad got out, by striking them with the butt ends of their whips ; and then to injure the men by riding over them. The plaintiff was rode over, by which he was kdocked down and hurt, and the party, having driven the men away, had the..dogs remaining in the earth dug out and shot. , The iden tity of some of the parties was 'not proved, but two 'of them * were found guilty, and a verdict of 100/. very properly given against them. If a proof. were wanting of the brutalizing client which time diversion of fox-bunting has upon the minds and feelings of the country gentlemen of England, this case would afford a very striking one. In a l its parts it evinced a tyranny and brutality which none would Possess but those whose finer feelings are blunted or destroyed by living among their horses, dogs, and whippers-in ; and who, for the sake of pursuing their favorite diversion, do not hesitate to endeavour, by ever means in trieir power, to keep up the breed of a' noxious animal, to the destruction of their neighbours' gam e and poultry, nor to break down the hedges, and ride over the corn of others, to the annoyance and in jury of three-fourths of the 'landowners. We do not wish it to be understood that we are adverSe to the existence of all those manly exercises which this country has ever been distinguished for; but with regard to th e chase, we consider that the present state of the country renders it in many places, a nuisance of the most into lerable nature, and that that which Might formerly have been most properly pursued as an agreeable mode of destroying noxious animals, ought not in all places to be continued nose simply as a diversion; for the main tenance,• too; of whieb, not only the breed of these animals is kept up, but fresh importations annually made from France and other parts. The law has very wisely set a price upon the head of all Vermin, payable by the Churchwardens in every parish ; and we hope the time will soon arrive when every parish will encourage the destruction of foxes, and effectually put an end to fox-hunting, by exterminating the ,breed, , which might easily be effected, if it were not for the contrary en deavours of the Nimrods amongst , time Country Gentlemen, and a . few successful • speculators, and People of that description in London, who sUb- . acribe for the purpose of keeping their hounds in Sur rey, and other places, to the inconvenience of all well disposed persons. We see no more reason for pro * tecting the breed of Foxes than that of Wolves ; and we hope, the late trial will only serve as a stimulus to all , try destroy every Vox which anr be , met with in ever y hart . of the Country.

COURT OF CHANCERY.—(This Dar.) IMPORTANT TO ,PUBLISHERS. NtAWMAN AND OTHEILS rl. TEGG. His LORDSHIP, upon taking his seat, proceeded to ex press himself to this effect in the present case :—The motion that was heard before him, which employed all Friday and Saturday, was a motion made by plaintiffs, in number, as represented from the bar, twenty-one, stating themselves to be entitled, as owners of a work called by the Solicitor- General Encyclopedea ilifetropolitana, and by Mr. Shad well Encyclopedia Metropolitan. The Court would not presume to decide which was the beet mode of pronuncia tion, but would take it as the Solicitor-General repre sented it to be dea. The application to the Court was, that the Court might prevent, by Injunction, the pub lication of another work called the London Encyclo pedia, a lesser work. In the first place, there was some thing like an insinuation that the appearance of the two works so much externally resembled each other, that the latter might be taken by the public for the former, but this could not be maintained. There was, indeed, a prospectus attached to the lesser work, which might be considered as announcing it to he as much a ;Metropoli tans work as a London Encyclopedia; but upon the prin ciple of Kirdle v. Hodd, the Court could not, from that circumstance..say the defendant was publishing the plain tiffe work. Another objection was, that the plaintiffs had not shown a title to the work. The Solicitor-General said, if the Court thought it necessary he would clear up any defect upon that point by affidaVit, but that he did not choose to do so upon the mere assertion of Counsel that it had not been made out. The' history of the thing was this :—There were three persons entitled to the Encyclopedia Metropolitana originally ; one was Mr. Cur tis, in a third, who had been represented to be the Editor of the other week ; another was a Miss Richardson, who, whether she supplied talent, or money, or both, was admitted to have been the owner of a third ; and Mr. Fenner, whose assignees some of the plaintiffs were, was the owner of the other third. Supposing there had been that sort of interest in all the three, which they could denominate a title, in the larger work, whatever ques tion there might be in some cases u to the copy-right such as whether it could or could not ;mass without writing, where it passed in law, it would be very difficult to maintain that it ought to pass in writing. Mr. Fenner became a bankrupt,. and, there fore, his right passed by law to his assignees. But whether they had subsequently become owners in their own right, as had beeu intimated by the Solicitor-General, or not, was not very. material ; because if they were assignees, their duty to all the creditors of Mr. Fenner, was to make the most of it, and if they were owners for themselves by purchase, they were entitled to say they should have the protection of the Court in respect of the two-thirds, if a case was made out for it. 'When the Court spoke of two-thirds, it was right to advert to the circumstance that Mr. Curtis had sold his third to Mr. Fenner.- 1 His case might very fairly be represented as a hard one, but when men entered into bargains they were hound to abide by those bargains. When he sold his share to Mr. F. he took in payment of it a bond payable after demand ; that demand was unfortunately not made till after the bankruptcy of Mr. F., and the bond could not after wards be proved under the bankruptcy, nor could Mr. Curtis be con sidered as having a lien in respect of it on the subject, which was the consideration for which that bond was given. The case of Mr. C. was therefore a hard one, but one from which he could not be relieved. With respect to Miss Richardson, all the Court knew about her title was, that the defendant had slot, by any affi davit or answer, denied the title of the plaintiffs to the whole work; and if the thing rested upon that, if any contradiction had been given seriously to the assertion of title in the plain tiffs, the Court would have been bound to have given AU oppor tunity to have made affidavits on the point. But in a case in which that might probably occasion a good deal of expellee to both parties, it was very advisable to avoid it if possible. Another eircutustance had been much pressed upon the Court, which was the delay attending the filing of the bill. This had been very considerably accounted for, from (what is feet, did not appear to the Court to have been sufficient done yet,) the necessity of ran slacking those Looks, in order 'to see how much of the plaintiffs' work had substantially been incorporated, or infused into the de fendants' work. Therefore, if further time had been necessary for this alsci, they would have been entitled to it. The prin ciples upon which the Court granted injunctions, were so extremely well known, that his Lordship only had thought it necessary shortly to refresh his memory by looking into them. By looking into she note in Eden's edition of Drown's CluoUlry'Reports, and the ot4e of Carman v. Boils, sit might be kitaten with re*.es to the principles that was necessary to know. In Carman e. Bulls and Miller v. Taylor, it was stated that there might be an injulai tion against part of a work. lien the Court had, therefore, de cided that it would grant an injunction, either against part or the whole of a work, it would depend upon the circumstances of each case, or by competing the original with what was called the piracy, in what way the injunction was to be granted. In the cue of Reviews, British (:'titles, and so on, their very titles might be made the covers of piracy, but where quotations made in those publications, merely for the purpose of reviewing them, they could not have the term of literary piracy applied to them.— It was the seine with regard to the works at present before the court. On the one hand, admitting. the works to be of great. public utility, which the Court had no doubt they were, it was contended by the editor anti owner of the lesser work, that there was no such thing as a monopoly of his plan, nor was there any such thing as a monopoly in arrangement ;. hut then the question was, where the defendants were publishing a work of the same nature and species of the plaintiffs', whether they were not publishing partly their own, and partly the plain tiffs' ? In all the cases that had been alluded to in ar gument, such as Paterson's Rooh of Roads, the Court Calendars, and many others, piratical acts had been established by the proof of copying blunders. But still, what quantity of that matter so marked by blunders was to be found in each, was an extremely' material consideration, because, though this Court, had long enter. tailed a suit by injunction with respect to literary property, yet, in all probability, time Court would not do more than leave parties to their fiction at law, where there might be only a few instances of piracy, though it might be different where it was clear there were a great many more, but which could not be detected without great a deal of amiditionel inquiry. There was another question i n this case, which, as far as his Lordship could ascertain, was not decided by any case, namely, whether ever there had been the iuterference of the Court in a case precisely in point with this ? Th e court, bewever, thought it very difficult to distinguish, in point of fair reasoning, a work of this kind, front cases of other works in which injunctions had been granted on the ground of what was called piracy. In some cases the Court had referred it to the Taster to inqui re i nto t h e i nstances of piracy; in othercates it had determined for itself by comparison, taking care i n the first- instance to steer its course in Snell a way as to be able ultimately to do justice between the parties, and therefore, in some instance', directing en account to be kept until an action has been tried ; in other instances and again calli ng upon the defendants to di recting an 'action to be brought . wit hout ordering an account to it gratin.' an injunctio n be kept ad well pressed by Mr. Horne, ;hat the plaintiffs books, and phuadtllmThneadapontirmntesl4t;o:Arransack the two marked the alleged copied passages, but that the . defendants had no t dud such time. The Court, however, took it for granted that in a case where A considerable number of blunders were proved to have been copied, that that would be b e fore a jury, primajheie evid ence t h at the oth er parts were also copies. In ,the pres en t case, of fertehfois case, the q uratioonmtwt ought as i *heti po ier s , iti tinder t t o he g e r i a r i c t u t tna the in junction,tattcee b e f ore t h e a n swer o f the defendant CAM in; or wheth er he, ought to ha ve an o pp or tunity first of making an affidavit with respect to time extent to which the defendant knew his work was a copy of the plaintiffs'. The plaintiffs could not know without examining the whole of the works, but the defendant, or the per ampy sone whom he empl oy from theed, certainly cou ld state by affidavit, how far they supp li ed c plaintiffs' book; so that they could, if th e y p l eased, inform the Court upon t h a t point, without getting it f rom the verdict of a jury. Consequent ly, th e C o u r t by of stating d no obj ect i on to give the defendant the opportunity affidavit how far those parts in the latter work , which were exactly the s ame as the original work, were o r were not copied from the plaintiffe' work. The defendant might take a day or two c h n is emze ord o s f h ? p e w wLek g , oi a te nd the affidavit the r+- to consi der of this proposition, and if he determined on snaking Court would receive it any morning in the then give prepared to pronounce his jud gmen t time case as it now stood. its opinion upon it, Litt no . t a , Mr. floaxe Said lie would avail himself of his Lordship's per mission to consider of making time affidavit. EYNK avaanamr ADi n ar S. Ilia LORDSIIa disposed of this case. -1 Z Ey r e, who was surety for a gentleman of the name of Main it r. the . banking house of the dekndante, ilia bond twitting to to pay 2,200 L, filed I insisting upon the grounds stated the bill, that as a 'moiety he was discharged. The eau v one • • fl eas an extremely bard upon thephuntiff, and one in which there had alr ea dy been a great de a l o f li t i gation. The question was: whether Mr. Eyre wail to Le considered-414 having Owed hi s contidoce i n Mr. Mainwaring, who had left the country, or, in others, who had abused it. The bill stated, that the defendants, subsennent to the plaintiff's becoming surety, had taken a bond front Mr. Main ' Waring for 10,0001., to which the plaintiff was no party, but by which he submitted he ss-as to be co ns id ere d as di sc harged. -Ano ther circumstance vras, that there had been a dispute between the plaintiff and defendants in 1819 (the bond having been given in 1814), about the bond, and yet that they had taken no proceedings against him upon it for five year* afterwards, and that, therefore, - on the ground of delay (11r. Alannering having alippped out of the country in the meantime); the plaintiff ought to be considered released from his liability. The Court had given the subject the greatest consideration, but could find no ground on which the plaintiff could be held as released front his liability, and, therefore, the injunction th at h a d b een grante d , restraining the def.. - -ndants from recovering upon their judgment, would now hive to be dissolved. The mere circumstance of a creditor contracting an additional debt with a debtor could never relesse a 'surety for a prior debt. The Sot.terroa-GsNELaa. appeared for Mr. Eras. He said, though the ease had been tried both in the. Courts of King's Bench and Common Pleas, hie client never had bad a fair trial. Those Courts had got, as they generally did,. hold of a scrap of the case, and upon that scrap decided the whole. Mr. HART, contra, hoped his learned friend would DOW think he had had a fair trial in this Court. The Sumerroa-GENtaat was hound to conks that he had. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.—(Tnis Div.) HOLDEN w. /Laval). This was application on behalf of the Secretary to the Commis sioners appointed by Act of Parliament, assisting in the executionof public worki, &e., by off er i ng Exchequer Bills on security for an order, to be paid tke enti re amount of their claims, out of the effects of the defendant (a bankrupt), before any other creditor should receive • dividends according to the tenor of the Act. The defendant, Sir John Elford, with ruin' other'a, applied in 1824, to the Commissioners% ° hOtalt o f tl»+ Plymouth Bail Road Company, fora loan oflB,ooo/. to carryon that work, whiCh sum they received—in a short time after they lipplied for 10,000/. which aim was also advanced on their peoonal security in 1825, four of them became bankrupts, and application having been then made to the Lord Chancellor by the Coursuiasioners, fur priority of payment, his Lordship ordered that the 25,000/., being the amount for which the Commissioners were security, should be paid before any sum should be advanced in discharge of any other debt. This was accordingly done, and a mortgage on the tolls of the rail road was given for 10,000/., being what remained unpaid, including principle and interest. The defendant having lately become a bankrupt, this petition Was preferred to enable the Commissioners to dispose of the mortgage on the tolls for his share of the 10,000/, being one-fifth, unless they were paid the entire of their claim on the estate. Mr. SHADWELL and Mr. 'lowa appeared for the plaintiff, and Air. Caaaarr for the defendant. The latter made some objections respecting the construction put on some clauses in the Act, hut they were overruled by the Vice- Chancellor, who said, that the Comtnissioners were clearly en titled to a priority to the amount they claimed, and directed en order for the sale of the mortgage, and that one-fifth be carried to the account of the defendant. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE.—(This DAY.) Two shoemakers, named Miami and Jam Saxton, were charged with having committed brutal assault on a young female named Mary Clark. ..... • The complainant, who is a girl of the town, appeared with her face dreadfully lacerated. She stated, that on Saturday evening she was returning from the Coburg Theatre, in company with two other &males, when the elder prisoner laid hold of her in a rude manner, which she resisted. The prisoner swore he would teach her the consequences of such resistance, and a blow, which knocked her down, instantly followed the oath ; he then proceeded to kick her with fury, and his brother lent him aid ; nor did they desist until the screams of her companions brought the watchmen, when both the prisoners fled. They were, however, overtaken and secured. She bled so profusely, that her companions thought it necessary to take her to a pump, and.pump upon her. She was carried home in a state of insen sibility. She was so severely injured, that it would be many months before she could be expected to recover. The elder prisoner. Michael, declared that the complainant bad importuned him, and ou his refusal to comply with her request, gave him a kick. This put him beyond his temper, and he ad mitted that- ate did her in return, b u t h e h a d not i nten d e d to 'injure her liessontly: ' • - The win-willies iietlared that there was not one word of truth in his statement, as to the provocation. hideed the prisoners were , a pair of fellows not likely to be spoken to by well-dressed females like the complainant. Alderman Kr said, that supposing the prisoners statement to be true, it.was no justification, as he had no right to take upon bimselfthe redress of his own wrongs, but was bound to give her in custody. • . _ • . The prisoner said he , Walresuly to make reparation for his " m i.. tuke,'' and give the woman any money she required. The Alderman would not permit this ; ruffians of the prisoner's class, thought that these (coulee, who were excluded from society, were placed beyond the protection of the law, end were subject to every species of brutality, but they must be taught otherwise. He ordered the prisoner to find bail. BOW-STREET-(THIS DAY). CHARGE or Viotamow....—Mr. Price, a respectable-looking young man, residing at No. 9, Middle-mw, Ifolborn,lvashrought up on a charge of rape, by a ',etyma girl, mimed Elizabeth Cook. The charge was distinctly sworn m by the complainant, hut Mr. Price brought several respectable persons to prove an alibi, who were in the course of examination when we went to press. We shall, therefore, givelhe particulars to-morrow. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. —(Tins b.r.) Arthur Maeready, a tall Scotchmari, with one arm, was charged by one Michael Daly, a wily, athletic, military-looking watchman. He stated that last night he was "on duty," and saw the prisoner, who was then freakish, " lolling on a lamp• post and reeonnoitering a house," and ou coming up lie ordered him to walk on, when the prisoner " took up his fist and it him in the hr." Arthur stated in defence, that he lodged in the house he was looking at, and could not get in; he, however, could not, at least he did not, deny being drunk, and was fined As. and discharged. Sarah Bennet, a well-dressed, ample-looking, " fat, fair, and forty" sort of personage, was charged • by a watchnian with being drunk, and teimeking her wedded lord and master, Mister Ben net, last night, in the streets. She walled into the dock with an air of perfect complacency, and seemed on better terms with herself than her " better half," who was brought in, and placed beside her; and said that he was very sorry for her conduct....:. Mrs. Bennett, however, did not seem sorry at all, and when she was told that she tree tined ss. and her husband I s., she drew out the family Inme, paid fur herself, and left her relenting spouse in die dock (who was forced to get ehinge), with an sir which con vinced all present that "the grey mare was the better horse." INGENIOUS SWINDLING. On Saturday/ a fashionably dressed man in a handsome sten hope, drove up to the shop of Mr. D. Ellis, jew e ll er an d gold smith, No. 2, John-street, Oxford-street. After telling him that be wanted some plate for his chambers, as he wa s unwillin g to send and disturb his regular gets in the country, he selected some of the moat valuable, which he desired might be packed up and sent to his lodgings. Affrcting however to recollect himself, he stated that he was then going to drive home, and Mr. Ellis might send the plate and a person to receive the money with him in the gig. This Mr. E. consented t 0,,, the purchaser exhibited such gentility in dregs and manner, that he felt convinced of his respect ability. - The gentlemax drove to the Temple, where he desired the jeweller to remain and take care of the gig, while he took the plate into his chambers, and he would scud his servant with the money, and who would relieve him of the gig. The jeweller remained for several hours ; but he never saw master, servant, or money afterwards; and returned only with a handsome horse and gig, which had doubtless been hired for the above purpose.

FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. WINDSOR, AUG. 6.—This afternoon the KING, attended by the. Lord Steward, took' an airing in his phaeton, from the Royal Lodge, and proceeded to the Castle, to observe the progress of the works. Mr. Wyatville, the architect, was in waiting to receive his MAJESTY, who arrived about four o'clock ; and after inspecting the different parts of the building, left the Castle about five o'clock, on his return to the Lodge. Numbers of spectators were assembled to see the KING. His MAJEsTY and suite attended Divine Service this morning, at the Royal Lodge, which was per. formed by the Dean of Salisbury. The Princess Augusta and suite attended Divine Ser vice this morning, at the parish church; and this being the first Sunday in the mouth, the Mayor and Corporation attended in their full robes. The Rev. Mr. Mealy, Curate of this parish, preached an excellent sermon from the 15th chap. of the First of Corinthians, and the 22d verse. The Royal - Horse Guards marched from their bar racks to the square in front of the, Root Barracks, where Divine Service was performed to both regi ments. The two Bands attended on the Terrace in the afternoon, which was thronged with - fashionahles. The Royal Horse Guards had a grand field day on Friday, at Egham Common.- The Duke-of York took his daily drive on Satur day, in his cabriolet, from Mr. Greenwood's villa at Brompton, down the Green Park, through St. James's Park, where his Royal Highness stopt a short time, and inspected the mew building for his future resi dence, fire.—Mr. P. M'Gregor atonded the Rpyal Duke on Saturday morning.—Sir Herbert Taylor transacted military business with his Royal Highness in the course of the day. Count Lieven, the Russian Ambassador, transact ed business, yesterday, with Mr. Secretary Canning, at his office, in Downing-street. It is rumoured in the higher circles, that the Order of the Garter, vacant by the death of Lord Winchel sea, is to be given to the Duke of Devonshire, on his return from Moscow. . A great personage is extremely anxious that , man sions of the very first class shall be erected either on the site of Carlton Palace, or the gardens and ground contiguous to it. The Duke of Athc-.l is at present the only Nobleman who stands pledged to build a house there. The interior of Carlton Palace is nearly dismantled . of its gorgeous - furniture. The fine collection of armour and other valuables is deposited in the Riding SChool at Buckingham House, which has been fitted up and appropriated for the purpose, until the new Palace is ready to receive them. The massive folding, and other - doors, in the in terior of Carlton Palace, are to be sold by auction, we suspect, by Mr. G. H. Robing, ►order the direction of Mr. Nash. Sir Herbert Taylor will shortly retire from his offi cial situation, as Military Secretary to the Duke of York, upon a pension, which, together with the profits arising from his regiment, and the fortune he has amassed during his very long continuance as Secretary to the late King, and subsequently to the Duke of York, will enable him to live in splendid retirement: for the remainder of his .days. Few men have enjoyed a larger share of popularity whilst in office than Sir Herbert Taylor. Mn.

Scar lett 200 guineas; and Mr. Tindal and his subs, from WY to 80 guineas each, There are at least seventy witnesses subpoenaed, pro and con,—Morn., Letters have been received from Mr. Price, the new Lessee of Drury-lane Theatre, by his trusty treasurer, Mr. Dunn, dated five days after the former had sailed from LiVerpool, from which it appears, that, owing to adverse winds, there is little chance of ' his return to England in sixty days from the time of his departure, which the enterprising Manager confidently I calculated upon. Madame Vestris it engaged at Covent Garden Theatre for the ensui»g.season. Liberal offers' were made to the lady. by Mr. Price, which she rejected. One of the early revivals, next season, at Covent Garden Theatre, will be Shakespear&S Othello, in which Young will perform the Moor; Ward, ./aio ;, and Charles Kemble, Cassio, which the late Mr. Kemble always considered one of the most perfect personations on the English stage. Clara Fisher is preparing an entertainment for the ensuing season, which is to consist of Imitation, Reci tation, and Song, upon a plan similar to those exhibi tions which kir several years have been so popular. The mimic powers of this clever little artist are reported to be extraordinary. Mr. Braham and Miss Stephens take the lead in Opera at Drury-lane next season. Liston has been applied to by the Managers of both Theatres—we have not heard whether he is yet engaged at either. We suspect, however, that Covent Garden Theatre is likely to be the scene of his winter campaign. (From the Examiner.) ---A gallant officer, coming north of the Tweed, in passing through Windsor Park, a few Jays - back, in his carriage, chanced to cross the path in which his Majesty, driven by the Marchioness of Conyngham, was ruling in his pony phaeton. The phaeton being on the wrong side, and not moving quite so quick as the North Briton desired, he immediately exclaimed, " Why dinna ye get out o' the way, old man 'r"—an address so unusual, that his Majesty burst into a fit of laughter; and Sandy, shortly alter seeing his Majesty's suite coming up, began to suspect he had been guilty of a breach of Scotch prudence, and drove off at a quick rate to hide his blushes and his mortifications.

As this business excites so many interesting antici pations, we subjoin the following particulars, received this morning, from our own Correspondent at Lan caster : AUGUWt , . " I h ave pist learnt that it is not possible for the rase to cattle on, on TiftrtiSDAS' NEx.r, there being, for instance, no bill found ; and in the next place, Mr. Wakefield objects to such a premature proceeding. His Counsel are Messrs. gearlett, Parke, and Pol lock. A curious circumstance has taken place, which is, that Mr. Brougham has been retained on Loth sides at tins same time, and there is a doubt for whom the Learned Gentleman will ap pear, Mr. Wakelleki considers its ought to have the benefit of his assistance. The Attorney. General for Lancaster (Mr. gearlett) has written him a note to say he is retained ao his (Mr. Wake . field's) advocate. _ It ii considered as certain that he cannot, under the Act of Fleury lil. c. 2., be convicted of vaconv, but of the misdemeanour only, which has made up his mind to, ii tried. lle corresponds with a munber of distinguished persons on the Continent. Lancaster will be excessively crowded.. The criminal list is very heavy', there being from 123 to 130 prisoners. The Civil Side will be intoesting. Lavender, the Police officer, has ordered apartments for :150 witnet,ses. Mr. TutiltiVU has taken apartments at a Mr. Carter's, so that it would seem be intends to prosecute, but there is something tr hinrf the curtain ; and it is whispered the Sun. will nut be far from the truth. Mr. Wakefielit'. it is said, will not be srruigned before the second week. The waiter• Mal chamLermaid of the King's Arms Inn, Kendall, are subpoenaed !" Etorntryv.---On my way from Keith! through Barton, yes tertlay (Friday), a post chaise and four drove along, with au oxtraorthuaty spec 1, aupposed to be for Gretna Green. The young holy was muilletl in a greut coat, awl the goutlenian wore a seal:Ain cap over his eyes, evidertly for the purpose of conceal ment. I endeavoured to learn who they were, but without effect. STATE OF TRADE.--Our market for cotton goods has during the present week, exhibited grati fying symptoms of amendment. The belief that it has reached its lowest ebb, has brought forth a great number"of speculators, desirous of laying in stocks at the present low prices, conceiving, and not unjustly, that prices will rise with the returning tide of prosperity. This circumstance operated in Cannon -street, on Tuesday last, like a refreshinir shower of rain on a sultry day, and it made the Manufactbrers skip shout like grasshoppers. The slumbers of the dust which lay on their immense piles of goods is their long alley-like looms were completely disturbed, and we sincerely trust that in future it will find another resting place. There was a good deal of buying, particularly by persons from London, but not at any ad vance of price. It is expected, however, that if the demand con tinue (and from its being about the lime that the country dealers lay in their stocks, it,is not unlikely) prices will gain ground, and continue to do so, provided the manufacturers do not again over stock the market. —Manchester Gazette.

Take some dripping, and mix it with meal; smelt it on the middle of the parchment. The rats will smell it, and treading on the parchment, it will give way, and they will fall into the water in the barrel. Put a plank for them to creep up to the barrel's brink outside, anti strew some oatmeal on it. You must not let the water be too deep, but set a brick endways in it, and the first rat that is caught will make a noise, which will entice more ; so that they will fight for posses sion of the brick, and the noise will draw others. Thus, in one one night, the house may he cleared of rats, bs they ever so many. —Mice, and tither vermin may be caught in a similar way. THE MARKETS. CORN-EXCHANGE.—(Tnis DA 'O.
